Bye Singapore I'ma going to Japan till the 2nd of January, 2010 so see you next year :D
Here is a 4000plus-word essay on what my cell leader (and many sane people 'round the world I'm sure) think of Twilight for your perusal. If you can't read it, either:
1) you're such a Twihard your heart breaks to read this and thus you are really rather twitty,
2) you just can't be bothered.
In the case of number 2 I do suggest you take time off and slowly read this (: it does rather make sense. So, here goes nothing! (my longest post ever)PART 1: Walk up to any group of young girls and say one word ‘TWILIGHT!’ then quickly cover your ears to protect your ear drums from tearing. I never cared about the hype of twilight nor it’s record box office takings, power to you if you enjoy the show, It’s not that I hated the show before watching it because people who conclude how they should feel about a subject/object based on the category it’s placed in (yes that’s the crux of racism too) are just imbeciles. So I didn’t hate twilight because it’s placed in the genre of Romance. I just have only x amount of hours in my day and there are a host of other things I’d rather do then watch twilight (I mean even at this point in time I haven’t watched Inglorious Bastards but I really want to catch it) I did notice however the high pitched near hyperventilating responses especially of young girls and even some of my older lady friends in regards to this saga, and now after watching ‘New Moon’. I have no idea why they do respond that way, and I write this nearly four thousand word dissertation so that you can make a better decision about how you want to react everytime you hear the word twilight. I am hoping that you will see it for what it really is, a movie that does not warrant your excited peals and squeals.
First of all, I think if you are really honest with yourself you are only watching twilight because you like to look and stare at the chiselled pecs of the boys in 3 quarter pants (jacob black does look pretty good i’ll give you that (with his hair short)) or the chiselled jaw of the constantly having a stomach ache face Robert Pattinson. There are NO, i repeat NO other redeeming factors for this movie...except for the 10 second scene of the canary yellow porsche cruising towards the town of a thousand red riding hoods, but either then that this movie and it's entire premise is horrible and i don't understand why tweenage girls are going crazy over it.
Sure, i didn't watch the first installment and i was willing to forgo my ticket for New Moon. (long story short, i didn't want my wife to taxi it back home by herself at 3am in the morning (it was a midnight show) so in love i said yeah book a ticket for me, but after finding out she could just take the car i decided sleeping at home and watching the back of my eyelids would be far more satisfying) I told my wife to give [our friend who booked the tickets] my share of the money, and that i'll see [my wife] the next morning and to enjoy....
...So as per any healthy marriage the wife got her way and we're heading towards the cinema and i think to myself 'ok be fair, go in and watch the movie objectively without any predjudice, see if you can spot what all the fawning love struck looks that overcome nearly every single woman stems from'....conclusion, i have no idea, I have called upon all the analysis skills I have acquired doing science and I have come up short, I find many reasons to be appalled at this movie but none that would give rise to ‘this movie is soooo goooooodd’, it is an enigma, the effect of young ladies raising their voices in excitement to space-time splitting proportions at the mention of the word ‘Twilight’ surely cannot stem from the train wreck I viewed ... infact, later I will propose a few reasons why, if anything you should be raising your eyebrows at people who think twilight was even remotely good or entertaining.
So like the name's Sarah; 31071995.
